Race Video: Tuned CLK550 vs. JB4 335

Well, here we go, finally, we have a race involving BB member blkclk550. After 30+ pages of keybord warfare races took place. Now, we are told the 335 was on a 100 octane map. Blaizon, the 335 owner, said he would run a 93 octane map. The CLK does pretty well seemingly getting the jump each time and holding it. The cars seem pretty evenly matched with the JB4 having a slight top end advantage. The commentary by whomever filmed was humorous but we could do without it. Either way, look at the vids and decide for yourself.

^good find. I honestly see exactly where LM is coming from - bc in the N54 scene not one of us on the east coast ever trapped anywhere near the west coast guys. I was a firm beleiver that the M3 was as slow as $#@! (at least, not as fast at people claimed when modded).....but until recently when I starting modding and doing comparo runs with some solid cars, then my mind changed. I guess its a "see it to believe it" type thing.

Im going back in a week or two to get a custom race dynotune by OETuning, so I will let you know when I get that done. But there have been people with my set-up hitting 400whp (like BrenM3), and others.

I wouldnt judge by hp figures though, the DCT tranny is a cheater for sure....you can be putting down significantly more whp in a 6MT and the DCT with less hp will still be right there...

haha PC will never get my business.....anyways I'll run you either which way (before the custom tune or after), but honestly next weekend im real busy so it would have to be the weekend after (upon which ill probably have my tune anyways).

i gotta sign off but ill check this thread tomorrow for updates...PM me if anything

update: ok cool, so prob around two three weeks? whatever well figure it out..just leme know when your cars all ready man

stock clk550 ran dct M3 from 45 mph roll sweetspot.for the M and not clk we have to be in the 3k where our peak tq is. Clk lost by a car so if.you let clk run from 3k it will pull on dct. That's a roll run dct has latest nch fontroll quick clk doesn't that's why stock clk does 12.8 in 1/4.
